Would have been a lot colder then with "man made climate change" affecting them there now. The crew I met today were from Linton, the drivers had it cushy, waiting at the highway for them to drag themselves out 10 plus km after the week in there, been fairly cold and wet the last week, was 6`c when I left there.
